SWEET

I like it. I am not sure I had ever seen one with those grips? Sweet.

Your killing my friend.

I am with you brother Rob. I loved the first film. Just my opinion but I think they were ahead of their time. Cant wait to see the new one.

Good morning. I have been curious about the leupold vx-5 in 2-10 for sometime. Has anyone had any experience with this one? Thank you

The new owner is delighted. It is just what I asked for. Thank you G.T.

Amen to Diamond Gusset. Best I have ever owned.

I used the 0000 steel wool on mine. And went very lightly and slowly. Just as I was instructed by everyone here. In my humble opinion it went well. The hardest thing for me was to not get in a rush. My worst enemy is my impatience.

Snow here in Sparta.

Well done my friend.

I ordered a leupold vx3i 2.5-8 scope for it? I am hoping it will make a good combo?

We shall see. Blessings

It is a Ruger 77 in 308. The finish on the rest of the rifle is very nice in my opinion. Just the stock had some dings and scratches. Will make a fine deer rifle I think?

Thank you.

You were absolutely correct Rob. The conditioner put it where I am okay with it. Here are a few pictures of it together. I am not sure how am going to top it off yet? Or maybe trade it off? Doug

Thank you all. You all are too kind. This is

Thank you. My first. I know you all are much better at this than I am, but it’s not too bad for a first timer? I am just amazed that the dents are gone. The damp cloth and iron trick was great. My Kimber 84M in 338 Federal looks like it has an oil finish that is like a satin finish? Would that be correct? Who says you can’t teach an old man something new?

Best I can do with what I have. This side was super dented. My iPad makes it look grainy. If I can knock some sheen down I will call it

Not too bad. It is just a little glossy for my taste. If I read things correctly the conditioner might take care of that? Thoughts? I will try and get some pics up tomorrow.

Just a couple. I can boot myself in the backside for not doing a better job of following the process.

I put the last coat of finish on this morning? 6 coats now. From what I read I now have to wait 7+ days for this to dry and then use the sheen conditioner? We shall see?

Well I am working on it. The iron and wet cloth worked. Who knew? I have 4 coats on it now. It looks good except for 1 spot? But it is getting smaller each coat. We shall see. Blessings

Good morning. Good idea on the YouTube thing. I am going to give it a try. I ordered a tru-oil kit. I have a stock that someone did a really nice repair to a crack. I think I will try it first. I would also like to shorten it by 1/2“ to 3/4”? Oh boy. Here we go.

Stunning,work. Curious how you save checkering?
